Watching it now!!!
Best city on the planet!!!!
Thank you for your great video and for your great honesty .you are speaking the way that I really like it because of this, I am planning on coming to Sydney and to enjoy some of the nice beautiful scenery during my three weeks vacation . I actually live in Montreal Canada 🇨🇦 so I will make a big huge trip across the globe around September. Thank you very much.
Do you need a visa to visit Australia and do you have a Brisbane video?
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’ve lived in Sydney for more than 40 years. Never heard of anything called the “Bay Bridge” I think you mean the Harbour Bridge, sometimes called “the Coathanger” You also didn’t mention that tipping is not required because business owners pay their staff and dont force employees to extract more money from customers. For that reason Australian restaurant meals are not as expensive as you might think. You can still tip if you want to but it’s not required as it is in the USA the price on the menu is, like all retail prices in Australia, inclusive of any taxes. It is illegal to quote a price then add tax.
thanks for the detailed imfors!! helps me a lot
This is an excellent video on Sydney. I now live in San Francisco but as an ex Manly Beach resident I strongly urge visitors to catch the ferry out to Manly, grab some fish and chips and just sit on the beach. Vastly superior experience to Bondi Beach.
Thanks Jasmine!
If anyone wants to see just how jam-packed and insane Bondi is in the summer, watch some episodes of Bondi Rescue on RUclips. It's like the Freemont Experience, but on a beach. My favourite thing in Manley was hiking the paths between Manley and Shelly Beach. Used to be excellent nightlife there as well, but I wouldn't know now as that was 10 years ago for me.
Also vastly superior to San Fran so wot the hell are you doing there?
Do you have any advice on places to get Fish and Chips.
@@HenriHattarHe was comparing Bondi beach to Manly . He never said anything against San Francisco.
People of Australia are very nice with visitors helpful and gentle in behavior
Been to Australia twice and lived in Brisbane for a year. Love it in Sydney and also Brisbane. Awesome places
Neat Wutaii!
Australian coffee is so good that only the tourists go to Starbucks. All the others closed as the coffee is poor compared to just about any other cafe.
That’s right
Also because Australians didnt like the corporate identity of Starbucks and the commercialisation associated with its brand.
@@rajagupta6772and they don't even have proper espresso machines....
Starbucks is too sweet and has too much extra stuff. I don’t understand why Americans can’t just have a normal coffee.
Starbucks has suckered Americans into buying their grade B burnt coffee , but Australians know better. Been to Oz numerous time and only ever had one cup of coffee as bad as Starbucks.
Really good review to this wonderful city that I know well. The Opal Card also works on the train out to Katoomba for the Blue Mountains.
One criticism, nobody calls it the Bay Bridge - it’s the Harbour Bridge.
Or just "the bridge" (as opposed to taking the tunnel).
Opal card also works for all the public buses in the blue mountains I've encountered and many on the central coast.
Sydney is mostly cashless but get out into more rural areas you MUST have cash, including coins
Chris, you're my favorite travel guide youtuber. There's no BS with u, straight to the point, clear, concise. You've helped me tremendously with your japan guide, and now you've helped me again with Sydney. Keep up the good work champ
Thanks Kamyaputra!
The opal card used for all public transport around Sydney has a daily cap of 16.8 AUD and weekly cap of 50 AUD, so just used them and do not worry about the high price single trips.
Thanks for sharing that perspective Jiasun
I’ve been there a month ago and I absolutely loved it! Definitely want to come back to Sydney and also tour around the country.
As a Malaysian who will be travelling to Sydney early next year, I gotta say I got a little too excited with the Malaysian spot recommendations. Definitely gonna give them a try!
this was awesome. thanks for the highly detailed video and the all of the great recommendations. super helpful to plan a trip to sydney

As a native of Sydney, he is spot-on with just about everything...
Thanks Grunthos!
I'm about to go to Sydney alone on October 19 to November 1 and I am super thankful you recently covered this city. Most of the popular videos are pre-covid.
Thanks anima!
I noticed you know how to pronounce Melbourne. Well done. My wife and I appreciate your videos a lot. We use them to help us study up a place ahead of time. Your Hawaii videos and these that deal with Australia are all wonderful. Thanks.
Thanks for including my favorite forms of transportation in large cities walking and rail transit.
What a fantastic city to visit as a tourist . Manly beach was beautiful .
Thank you for starting with more important basics such as where the airport is and pointing out neighborhoods. You're awesome and presented wonderfully and thoroughly!
Happy to help!

Thanks Sheriza!

Love that you can pronounce Melbourne accurately
Thank you. I plan on visiting Sydney within the nxt few years. I love Australia!
Thank you for this video. Very informative.
Thanks Maria!
Great work, Chris! As someone who lives in Sydney I can confirm you did a great job of summarising everything. Note: Sydney's shops and attractions used to be open much later before the Covid lockdowns. As things steadily go back to normal and tourism returns everything will go back to opening late. Be sure to come back and visit again in the summertime!
Thanks David!
Sydney late means 10pm Melbourne late is 1am
An excellent and comprehensive guide. Well done.
Thanks Anna!
Great work Chris, you covered a lot of ground in a short time. There are also many national parks and more beaches within 40 minutes of the CBD. I hope you enjoyed your time with us!
Really neat video bro! Super complete and useful for new tourists, thank you!
Thanks uncle!

Outstanding Video! Thank you for all the great information. I've been to London several times, and I'm glad I saw your videos. I even found the "secret swing" at Elysian Park in LA. Unfortunately, some dummy cut it down.
Thanks Victor. Bummer on the swing!
This was really helpful, thank you so much. Cannot wait to move here next month☺️
Thanks Tom!
I really enjoyed this video! Even though I’ve never been to Sidney this video made me feel like I could navigate around if I were there. Also psyched about the Malaysian food as it’s something I don’t have a lot even though I’m sure there’s some in SoCal where I live!
Awesome CaliforniaK!
Just love the Queen Victoria Arcade.
This type of travel video is a godsend! Really informational & super useful to plan my trips!! Thanks so much for this!!

South West Sydney. Liverpool, Bankstown and Fairfield is the best for food trips. So much multi cultural cuisines and resturants.
This has been so helpful and I’ll watch again! I’m going to east coast 🇦🇺 this august. Thank you sir 😊
Enjoy your trip!

Hi Chris. Thanks for the great tips. Sydney is a beautiful place and many things to do.I would have a fun time exploring the city. Those side alleys could have some interesting finds. Being sort of a foodie, I could really immerse myself with all the different types of food , especially the seafood. Definitely a foodie paradise. Take care.
Thanks James! Sydney has some really delicious food! And yes. The Seafood market was pretty awesome. I'll have a full tour of the fish market coming up
Foodie paradise?
Sydney is beautiful ❤
This is probably the best and most fascinating travel video I have ever seen. Excellent work. Well done !
Thanks Greg!
Great video Chris!👏👏👏💝🙋🏼♀️

I've been living in Sydney for over 45 yrs and PUDO is also new to me....never heard of it, but thanks.
Sydney is very beautiful 😊 Nice environment ☺ thanks for sharing this beautiful vedio 😍
From a Sydney-sider who was born here and lived here longer than I care to admit, this is a great description of Sydney and things to do and see.
Thanks so much!
Hi Chris! Love your video! I was wondering if you have any hotel recommendations with a great view of the NYE fireworks at harbour bay? Our family will be staying in Sydney over the Christmas and New Year holidays. Thanks!
Have watched a few of your videos now, great info in every one, Thank you. I've now subscribed. Cheers Don, Perth WA (Dons Shed and Xplor Overland)
Cheers Don!
Great tips Chris! Thanks for the insights :)
My pleasure!
Shopping between george and pitt st mall. Open all weekend. On pitt st mall check sydney tower at westfields for the revolving restaurant or observation deck.
Very helpful !! Looking forward to turning 50 in Sydney and then flying home to the US west coast that day to stretch the special day out as long as possible !! 😁
Thanks Jason
The Opera Bar has one of the best views of Sydney Harbour. It didn't seem that packed in the video, probably cause it's winter. Having actually worked there myself back in January/February/Mach in 2013, I will say something to keep in mind during the summer months, or if there's a major performance going on, is that it's packed elbow to elbow and good luck finding a place to sit.
Thanks for the tip Michael!
Speaking as a longtime Sydney resident, this isn't bad.
We do tend to avoid Bondi tho - too touristy these days (but quicker to catch train from Central or Town Hall to Bondi junction then bus from there, than catching the bus from Central and probably uber re traffic). But glad you mentioned the coastal walks and the ferries.
Liked that you highlighted our zoo - it truly is fantastic. But I'd suggest a full day there and start NOT with the cable car but catching the bus up to the entrance, walk all the way down 1 side of the zoo then catch the cable car back up and walk down a different way (it's hilly). Top tip: don't miss the Bird Show; and if you want to see the Aussie animals actually doing anything it's best to start there as soon as gates open in my experience (and hope you don't encounter any noisy ppl in these enclosures)
And obviously the whole experience is better if you get a fine day (if it's raining I'd do a museum instead - The Australian Museum is my pick, so much more there than you mentioned and they really go all out to make it relevant for kids too - but if you get bored the art gallery is only about 5 mins walk across the Domain)
Thanks for the tips Susie!
Just wanna say, you make great travel videos! I’ve gotten to the point that I search for your videos when I’m planning a trip :-)
Awesome! Thank you!
Love this video. I will be traveling Sydney in March with my mum. Good advice
Thanks Charlene!
